NASCAR star Kyle Larson won the World of Outlaws Sprint Car race
in Pevely, Mo., on Saturday night, marking his first victory
since being suspended by NASCAR and fired by Chip Ganassi Racing
for using a racial slur during an online simulation race in
April.
Larson made his return to the series on May 8 after completing a
sensitivity course, with a 10th place showing and finished
second to his brother-in-law Brad Sweet in a race on May 22,
after setting a new track record in qualifying. He won $20,000
for Saturday's win.
"This win means so much personally. I can’t even describe it,”
Larson said.
Larson began his racing career on dirt tracks and continued to
compete in Sprint Car events even as he rose to the top of the
NASCAR pyramid, earning an estimated $9 million last year.

The World of Outlaws race at Federated Auto Parts I-55 Raceway
was held in front of a limited number of fans thanks to relaxed
coronavirus restrictions in the state.
NASCAR has not said when or if Larson will be cleared to return
to the series.
